Help with technical translation...

Question

Please help me translate this into Spanish...

"When removing built-up roofs with asbestos-containing roofing felts and an aggregate surface using a power roof cutter..."

Answer 1

Durante la remoción de techados con contenido de asbesto, mediante el uso de cortadoras eléctricas, todo el polvo producido deberá recolectarse mediante el uso de un colector de polvos tipo "HEPA", o ser aspirado según "HEPA" a lo largo de la línea de corte"

Very good, but I really need "asbestos-containing roofing felts" to be translated as literally as possible. Just using "materials" is too general for what I'm going for. - laughagain, MAY 12, 2010

very funny, laugh maybe due to your name, this is EXACTLY what guillermo has translated;) - 00494d19, MAY 12, 2010

Answer 2

"When removing built-up roofs with asbestos-containing roofing felts and an aggregate surface using a power roof cutter..."\\

I feel pretty good about this:

Cuando quitando techos construido de tejido de amianto y una superficie de agregado usando una fresa mecánica de techo....

O

Cuando quitando techos construido de fieltro de amianto y una superficie de agregado usando una fresa mecánica de techo.

Close, but if possible, I really need "asbestos-containing roofing felts" to be translated literally. "Materials" is too general. Thanks for your help, though! - laughagain, MAY 12, 2010

You can simply substitute "fieltro" for tejido. Reference: http://www.construmatica.com/construpedia/Materiales_que_Contienen_Amianto#Fieltro_de_amianto_para_tejados - Goyo, MAY 12, 2010

Answer 4

When removing built-up roofs with asbestos-containing roofing felts and an aggregate surface using a power roof cutter..."

Well....I´m trying to translate it into Spanish... Mmmm....

"Al quitar las cubiertas de banda enrollada (de yute o similar, alquitranado). (I don´t know what cubierta de banda enrollada means in Spanish, I never have heard of it. But I found this translation in a web site, and they had look it up in this book :Menendez Martinez, Carmen, Salto-Weis Azevedo, Isabel; Diccionario temático de Arquitectura, Urbanismo y Construcción Español/Inglés - Topic Dictionary of Architecture, Urbanism and Construction English/Spanish, Omagraf S.L., Madrid 1992

Well I continue with the translation...

Al quitar las cubiertas de banda enrollada de amianto formado por fieltro para tejado y ......Do you mean building sand by aggregate??.

utilizando una sierra de tejas....

Sorry, I tried to do my best.... Hope it helps you unless only a little bit.

That is actually extremely helpful for the "roofing felts" part. Thank you so much! - laughagain, MAY 12, 2010
